Overview

A sticker from the player's inventory can be applied only once to any gun or gun skin owned, after which it will be removed from the player's inventory and only exist on the weapon it was placed onto. Trading the weapon skin will carry the applied stickers with them, though stickers applied to vanilla skins (stock weapon skins) cannot be traded since vanilla weapon skins cannot be traded.

A maximum of 4 stickers can be applied to the majority of weapons, excluding the G3SG1 and the R8 Revolver, which can have a total of 5 stickers.

Rarity

Souvenir weapon skins have exclusive stickers which are unable to be received in any other form.

Quality

Unlike Skins, Stickers do not have a fixed exterior quality when received. Additionally, stickers will not degrade over time, but the appearance can be changed with the Scrape sticker option to create the illusion of wear and tear. Each time the option is clicked, the chosen sticker's appearance will degrade similar to the exterior quality of weapon skins.[1] Using the option on a single sticker too many times will result in the sticker being fully scraped off and removed from the weapon. Before the final scrape, an alert will popup to confirm removing the sticker. Doing so will destroy the sticker.

Variants

Most stickers come only in Normal variant. Some stickers have a Normal variant along with a Holo or a Foil variant, dropped in the same sticker capsule the Normal variant is dropped in. Other stickers only comes in Holo variant or Foil variant.

Holographic stickers (Holo rarity) - A Standard paper-backed sticker with extra texture layers to create a holographic like effect. Different areas of the same sticker can use different patterns for holographic reflection.

Embossed foil or metal leaf stickers (Foil rarity) - A Standard sticker with an extra normal map to appear embossed and mimic a metallic appearance. A gold tinted version can also be found on certain souvenir weapons. Originally, the ESL One 2014 Souvenir Package had gold foil tournament stickers. As of the DreamHack 2014 Souvenir Package, however, the tournament sticker remains just foil, while the team stickers are gold foil.
